well after a long a partisan fueled standoff obama's pick for secretary of defense is to be voted on later on tuesday and chuck hagel certainly drew the ire of republicans from the outset and some of his views put him at all with his own party at a rather lackluster performance at his initial confirmation hearing well that didn't help either guy nature can reports. a number of republican senators including john mccain say chuck hagel is not qualified for the job but they indicate that they're going to allow the full senate to vote because what happened ten days ago was that the senators voted to postpone the vote and to continue the debate so it's all likely that they're going to keep stalling the vote over confirmation and he will be confirmed there's no doubt about that the votes are there but the humiliation that he had to grow through during these last few months sent a message all by itself right now chuck hagel is this great painting figure who keeps apologizing for the positions he has taken before that the statements he had made before including that war with iran should not

the move is likely to further strain partisan tensions less than a month into president obama's second term. >> my expectation and hope is that chuck hagel, who richly deserves to get a vote on the floor of the senate will be confirmed as our defense secretary. it's just unfortunate that this kind of politics intrudes at a time when i'm still presiding over a war in afghanistan. >> there are still questions outstanding. i believe that senators have the right to have those questions answered. >> some senators say they want to examine information regarding u.s. consulate attack in benghazi. some say after next week's recess, though, hagel will be ultimately confirmed. >>> during a live streaming google hangout chat thursday president obama defended his administration's use of drones in the war on terror insisting everything the government has done is legal. he did admit the public should know more about how that program works. >> what i think is absolutely true is that it is not sufficient for citizens to just take my word for it that we're doing the right thing. >> a classified memo rec
